3. Read and compare the results
After the meter counts to 0, the result of the control solution test will
appear. Compare the result with the range printed on the test strip vial.
The result should fall within this range.
Out-of-range results
If you continue to have test results fall outside the range printed on the
test strip vial, the meter and strips may not be working properly. Do
NOT
test your blood. Contact the local customer service or place of purchase
for help.
2. Apply control solution
Shake the control solution vial thoroughly before use. Squeeze out a
drop and wipe it off, then squeeze out another drop and place it on the
tip of the vial cap. Hold the meter to move the absorbent hole of the test
strip to touch the drop. Once the confirmation window fills completely,
the meter will begin counting down. To avoid contaminating the control
solution, do not directly apply control solution onto a strip.
